Roger returned saddened and horrifed from
the bedside of Julia, who, he now knew, had
willed. probably designed, his ruin, and now
all that had been hidden in that poor boys
heart was plain to him. Added to this
Thought was the fear Of losing his only child,
and he began to wish he had never left Amer
lea where they had been at peace. But
whit was done was done. Hs now had TO
think of her and her happiness only, that was
if she lived.
When he reached the house at daybreak he
almost feared TO enter the room, but he mus
tered what ourase he could and opened the
door softly snd made two steps forward,
when he saw Suzanne lying with her beauti-
full violet eyes, now preternaturaliy large,
wide open and sweet smile upon her lips,
and she stretched out her hands, saying fee
bly,:
"Oh, father how happy am"
Roger held out his arms to Raymond, who,
after one minute of hesitation, threw himself
into Roger Laroque,s embrace.
Raymond knew from Rogers eyes that his
mother was dead, but neither dared say a
word before Suzanne, and as her father
kissed her tenderiy be said;
